Aliyu warned residents of Bauchi State that, under his leadership, the police will not tolerate people taking the law into their own hands.
“He cautioned the indigene of Bauchi State that under his leadership, the command would not condone any individuals taking the law into their own hands by inflicting harm on suspects arrested for alleged crimes in such an inhumane and unlawful manner,” Wakil stated.
He stressed that no one has the right to brutalise a suspect and that people must allow law enforcement to do their job.
The commissioner also appealed to the public to stay calm while the investigation continues.
He assured all that the police are committed to justice and will ensure all those behind the mob attack are brought to book.
The public was urged to stay peaceful and support the investigation by sharing any useful information.
